The concept is as ingenious as it is not-at-all-the-stuff-of-your-nightmares: you breathe into the tubes, tiny algae in the tubes eats your CO2, then you eat the algae. Yum! Everybody wins, except the algae. Algae very much loses.

And don’t worry, it’s not actually called “Algae Helmet”. That would be ridiculous. No, it’s called “Algaculture Symbiosis Suit”, because fuck it!

Can I order 4 symbiosis suits, for me, Mrs Jones and the two kids. After all, it’s very green and so good for the environment, and I’ll look no worse than I usually do on a Monday morning when I’ve been on a weekend Rioja binge.

Wow. I can’t imagine that someone actually spend time designing and creating that! I mean aside from the science of it, who in the heck would want to eat algae?? But one thing I wonder…does the algae grow more rapidly if someone has super stinky breath?

By the way, I am loving that Jussi Adler-Olsen book ‘The Keeper of Lost Causes.’ If you enjoy Nordic thrillers, you should check it out. You cross my mind whenever I read it, not just because it takes place in Copenhagen, but because Adler-Olsen gives his crotchety detective protagonist such a sarcastic sense of humor–kind of like yours! Humor isn’t often found in Nordic thrillers, so this is a nice change of pace. Which is good, because the plot itself is dark.
